| Conclusion and recommendations but be part of the decisions concerning its sustainable management. Local people should be given more rights to collect and use forest products, through a negotiation process. Viewing the local people as part of the solution for conserving Phong Dien Nature Reserve is not yet an option for the government but they could help keep poachers away from the reserve. There should be an agreement on the possibility to access the forest, even that inside the nature reserve, during hard times (drought or flood) to collect some important forest products. 10.2.4. Economic incentives • The danger of the new economic and subsistence activities (plantations, rice farming) is that they keep people away from more-traditional activities. Even if the Pahy society is changing, preserving its traditional roots and its bases should be an important condition in any attempt of integration into other economic systems. • Decisions should be made on the diversification of agricultural practices (aquaculture, etc.). The profitability of plantations depends on market fluctuation and they should not be taken as the sole alternative to shifting cultivation and extractive activities in the forest. • The current new economic activities (especially plantations) are unsecured. Since most of the land around the village has been converted, few options are left to villagers in case of an economic crisis. 10.2.5. Cultural identity and local knowledge • The political process of integration of the Pahy minority group into the lowland way of life carries the danger of loss of cultural identity. Even if the integration of other ethnic groups into Pahy society is a slow process, these communities bring with them new behaviours, new activities and relationships with the local government. • Emphasis should be placed on tapping the existing (remaining) local knowledge of the village community. More studies should be implemented to collect information on local skills, and the traditional knowledge should be sustained. • Further research on the sustainability of NTFP collection is necessary, as an option for sustainable use of forest resources. Most of the natural vegetation in Khe Tran is disturbed forest or shrub lands, and the impacts of floods and fires continue to influence forest cover and structure.
